Alright tuning in to the BC Lions radio... they mentioned something I thought was interesting, that BC allegedly plans on only dressing 2 QBs (Reilly + backup). Thoughts on this? Is this a normal occurrence, or no? I know I've never heard of it, obviously they're all-in on Reilly, but it isn't that unheard of to have 2 QB injuries in the same game.

Thoughts?

Crazytown. Mostly because they don't plan to start much of an oline. Feels like a Wally move.

I believe some NFL teams have done this in recent seasons, the Pats come to mind but can't confirm or verify with evidence just off the top of my head.

Can’t have two QBs on the field at one time.

This piqued my curiosity - couldn't they just list the backup at a different position, then have him on the field... for example list him as a RB, then just have him take direct snaps, similar to just calling a trick play (for example a fake punt)

I assume there's a rule that you have to have 1 QB or something on offense,

QB’s are a separate roster designation.  If you list a QB as a RB that just means you have to bench you’re other RB, you don’t gain a roster spot.
